The DCAU was part of the 52 Multiverse (after the Crisis on Infinite Earths multiverse and before the New 52 multiverse) but I cannot remember its designation. Earth 12 is not the same as the DCAU, while it is home to the Batman Beyond comics, it is a possible future to the New Earth (Earth 0) where the versions of characters we all know best in comics. That being said, the Earth 12 timeline differs greatly in "the present period" from that of the DCAU. Earth 16 of the 52 multiverse originally belonged to the Super Sons but someone decided to axe them off and replace that universe with Young Justice. Again, not the DCAU. Recently, following the Convergence event in the comics there seems to no longer be an absolute set of 52 universe anymore, instead all multiverse in the past are potentially accessible. It's also worth mentioning that the DCAU can be considered a multiverse of its own, which only complicates this post even more. Sorry if that's confusing, but I thought I would share it just the same.
